Do you want to start a stone crusher plant business? If yes, a complete project planning guide including costs, permits, production process and more can be found here.
Stone chips are one of the main building materials along with brick, sand, cement and steel. Generally, you can divide the gravel into various sizes, such as 35mm, 20mm, 12mm, etc., for different purposes. Crushed stone aggregates are essential for the construction of roads, bridges, houses, industrial buildings.
Also, it is a necessary item for other cement-based products. The list includes fabrication of RCC pipes, PSC poles, pre-formwork, frames and beams etc. A stone breaking plant is a profitable investment for new entrepreneurs. The demand for high-quality stone chips is increasing day by day.
Here are five steps to start a stone crusher plant business
1、Market Potential of Stone Crusher Plant
All building structures, whether residential or industrial, require crushed stone. Cement-based products such as roller compacted concrete pipes, PSC poles, cement concrete hollow blocks, cement concrete precast slabs, well rings, door and window frames, road paving, etc. also require crushed stone. The demand for crushed stone will continue to grow along with the growth of its user industries.
One of the most specific, ubiquitous, and yet most important materials used to make concrete is stone chips. These are used as fillers for bonding materials in concrete production. Crushed stone accounts for about 72-75% of the concrete volume and has a great influence on the strength of concrete.
Good quality black stones are the most popular. However, you can set up the unit based on the availability of raw materials and major commercial centers.
2、Business registration and business license
- Registered in your country by management model.
- Obtain a business license from the local government.
- Register with Udyog Aadhaar MSME. This will help you access the government’s capital investment subsidy.
- If you are also mining, then you must comply with statutory regulations.
- Pollution control is a big problem. Obtained the “Permit to Establish” and “Permit to Operate” from the National Pollution Control Board.
- Stone crusher plants require high voltage electricity. Please go to the local power station to apply for connection.
- Crusher plant is a labor-intensive operation. Execute EPF and ESI specifications as required.
- Apply for GST registration.
3、Cost and investment of stone crusher equipment
Land and machinery are major fixed cost investments. The main working capital costs are raw materials, labor and utilities. Under the PMEGP scheme, you can get subsidies from the bank. In project funding, there must be a certain percentage of funds allocated by the sponsor. Banks can also require a security deposit on the loan amount.
4、Stone Crusher Factory Machines and Raw Materials
Stone crusher plant machinery depends on the feed size of the stone, the desired product size, and the size of the crusher being used. The following machines are generally required.
Jaw Crusher and Granulator
Conversion kit for converting gravel pellets
Manual crushing hopper group.
A rotary screen completes all accessories.
A trolley for carrying crushed materials.
belt conveyor with motor
Cyclone dust collector and motor
Spare Jaws, Clamps, Fixtures and Tools
There are two main types of rock crusher equipment namely (a) stationary and (b) portable or mobile. However, you can build stationary crushers in quarries. Mainly on construction sites, portable crushers can be used. Here we have explained the factory details of the stationary stone crusher.
Boulders are the only raw material needed in stone crusher plant.
5、Production process
First, break the large rock into smaller pieces by hand. It is then sent to a stone crusher. The crusher can accept a stone size of 175mm. Stone crushing is divided into two stages. At the first stage
stage, crushing the 175mm stone to about 50mm.
After that, match the crusher with the conversion kit to make the granulation 5 to 20mm. Then use a rotary sieve to screen out the crushed material. The location of the unit is the main factor affecting the business of the stone crusher plant.
